If you do anything with creating videos then you might want to know how to create cool, animated motion video backgrounds, and Adobe After Effects is the perfect software to do just that. In essence, all you have to do is create a new project, then a new composition, add a solid color layer, then add the animation via two plugins called Fractal Noise and CC Toner.

It surprises me how many people don’t realise how important on-page SEO optimization is. There are a lot of marketers who are ready, willing and able to sell you their latest, greatest, handy-dandy on-page SEO optimization tool for some amount of money.

Watch my video for full details, and to see how easy (and fun) it is:

Yoast SEO Plugin is completely free. Just click “add new” in your WordPress plugins page, and search for Yoast. It’s the first plugin that comes up.

In recent days I’ve been watching my traffic stats closely on several different measurement platforms, and it really seems like Piwik has been off lately. I’ve been able to determine that indeed there is some inaccuracy and I believe it stems from the javascript element of the tracking code. Piwik provides a different tracking mechanism in the form of an image embed, a simple line of code just like any other image that you can put between the body tags of your website to get a quicker and more accurate reading, without forcing each visitor to load code into a browser and run functions. This video explains for you. Enjoy
